Japanese Meiji Bronze Champlevé Enamel Incense Burner, Geisha & Ryu/Shishi
Located in New York, NY
Japanese Meiji Period Bronze Champlevé Enamel Incense Burner w/ Geisha & Ryu/Shishi Presenting a splendid masterpiece from the revered Meiji Period, behold an exquisite Japanese bronze incense burner adorned with Champlevé enamel. This remarkable piece showcases captivating hand-carved bronze mounts depicting a geisha on the main bowl and a Ryu/Shishi atop its lid. The geisha, meticulously crafted with utmost precision, graces the central bowl. Flowing robes adorned with elegant spirals serenely encircle the vessel. In a harmonious tableau, the geisha delicately engages with a Sheng pipe. The crowning glory of this masterpiece lies in its magnificent bronze Ryu/Shishi, majestically positioned atop the burner's lid. The vibrant bronze scrolls enveloping the Ryu/Shishi visually capture the enchanting sounds emanating from the Geisha's Sheng performance below. Delicate scrolling cutouts beneath the feet of the mythical creature add an irresistible allure while acting as conduits for the graceful diffusion of incense smoke. Enhancing the regal charm of the burner, three patinated bronze jeweled elephant...

Victorian Porcelain Spittoon, circa 1880 by Imari, Japan
Located in Incline Village, NV
The mark on the underneath (see image) indicates that this spittoon is of Japanese Imari porcelain, manufactured circa 1880, and made specifically for the American market for the preponderance of bars and saloons at that time. These were popular from 1865 to the turn of the century; this is a particularly fancy and elaborate example. Note the copious and highly detailed and beautiful floral decoration to the inside of the upper portion of the spittoon; pretty fancy for something meant for spit and saliva! Fantastic and all original condition with no cracks, no chips and very bright paint in sharp colors of blue rust and pink, and meticulously painted in a floral pattern. Several of these would have been “stationed” in strategic places within a saloon. This is a wonderful piece of porcelain, and quality item of saloon and Western United States history...
